Somethfnn Concernfnn Matches

Until twenty-five years ago the larger
part of the matches used in this country
were imported from England and Ger
many. Then the manufacture began
here and prospered greatly. For the
last ten years, one firm has succeeded in
doing most of the business, buying up
competitors or soaring away competi-
ton. The matches of American manu-
facturc most in use to-day are the ordi-
nary sulphur match, which constitutes
four-fifths of the supply, owing to its
cheapness, the parlor match. which gives
out no offensive odor, and the safety
match, of which one firm enjoys mon
opoly. The ordinary sulphur match i,
made by dipping the splints into bath
OF melted sulphur and then into the
PHOSPHORUS paste. The wood for the
splints is commonly white pine. and
sometimes beech, birch, poplar orcedar
Much Of il is brought from Canada. and
so great has been the demand that sub
stitutcs have been eagerly looked for.
The japanese use paper match, which
may be made here should wood become
scarce The entire labor Of match max
ing, even to counting the matches and
putting them into the boxes Is now
done 10y machinery. The wood is cut
into splintcrs by knives working trans
vcrscly, and each splint takes its Mace
upon an endless belt which carries it to
the sulphur bath and then to the phos-
phorous paste. The round splints arc
made by passing the square sticks
through steel plate perforated with
round holes. The common grade of
sulphur matches can now he bought at
retail AZ the rate Of ten cents for eighteen
boxes, each box containing seventy-f five
matches, or at the rate Of 1876 matches
for one cent

i am often asked, says st. Louis
bank president in the Globe Democrat,
whether this or that piece of money is
redeemablc. 1t is safe to say, unless the
moneys identity is entirely gone, that it
Is redeemable. In fact one NAV saw
that money in the shape of ashes can be
restored. 1t is fact that after the
Chicago fire ashes were redeemed. IL
came about in this way: 1t is customary
in banks to do money up in packages,
say of so, 600 each, and in the big fire
of course hundreds and hundreds of
these packages were reduced to ashes.
but the shape of the package remained
and wherever the package could be sent
on to Washington without crumbling the
ashes, the money was sure to be re-
placed. II was done by rimble- fingered
women in the treasury department,
whose trained touch and sight are won
derfully acute. 1t is well known that
the ashes of newspaper, if dampened,
will show traces of the printing. SO
was it with the bills. These
women would moisten the package of
apparently useless ashes, and to their ex-
perienced eye the number and charac-
ter of the bill would at once appear as if
they had touched It with magic wand.
SO thousands and thousands of dollars
were redeemed by these patient women.
"A friend OF mine, country merchant,
afraid of banks, placed large sum Of
money in bills in a stone jar on shelf
in his store, where he thought it would
he quite safe. When he went TO look at
it one day, some time after. il was mass
of fragments. Mice had got into the lar
and chewed the bills into the minutest
parts. Then they had mixed them all
up and altogether it was fearful look
ing mess. lie sent n cigar box full of it
to me. i forwarded il TO Washington.
and what do you Think Out of the
81 145 originally in the pile, little over
1000 was redeemed, the parts beyond
recall being only the mere fibres Of the
bills. So tho man lost only 800 by his
foolishncss. The reclamation Of such
money is done entirely by women. whose
patience especially fits them for the
monOtonous work.

Bfg PAY for LITERARY Wors.

psb A0O (OS' 1<teTUTD nOTH,
To the fortune he has made out of
ivory trading, Mr.. Stanley will be able
to add $500 which he will receive
from Bentley, the London publisher, for
the book which he is about to write
about his present trip. This is a very
large sum to get for single work.
Thackeray never made over S25, 900 for
any one of his books. Wilkie Collins
got 500, 900 for Armadale. George Eliot
$40, 900 for Middlemarch. Dickens got
more than Thackeray, but far
from as much for any one work
as Stanley. Scott, however, received
$40 600 for Woodstock. There is a
big drop below this, Lord Lyfton get
ting only $4,000 for his earlier novels.
One must turn to the histories for any,
thing like SANKEY'S price, Macaulay
getting single check of 800, 900 for
the first volume of his history, but
Macaulay left an estate Of only $500, 900
and he died with all the profits of his
work about him, while Mrs. Grant has
received $494, 900 for General Grants
memoir. This is the advantage of serv-
ing republic. A hundred thousand
pounds to successful general would
seem a big grant even in England. The
United States citizens have given it
without feeling 1t, and not as grant
but as pay for good work.-[Philadel-

Rice Culture.

Before our civil war, rice culture was
an important industry in several Of the
Southern States. One of the present
signs of the times is that this industry is
again picking up. Last year, according
to the American Cultivator, one hundred
and fifty million pounds were grown
and about one hundred million more
imported. This year our production is
estimated at one hundred and seventy
five million pounds, and perhaps more.
Rice is being substituted for sugar on
plantations in Louisiana, where the lat
ter has been found Improbable. 1t is
also grown to some extent in Minnesota,
though it is mainly wild rice, and the
chief expense of the crop is in harvesting
and cleaning it.
To grow rice under the best conditions
the land must be alternately flooded and
drained. The crop requires prompti-
tude in harvesting, as when fully ripe it
soon shells and wastes. An average crop
is thirty bushels of rice, besides some
waste, broken rice and meal that is used
for feeding stock. The whole sale price
now is "a cents to cents per pound,
and bushel weighs about twenty eight
pounds. There are many risks in rice
growing and the price often fiuctuates
largely. 1t is hardly probable that at
present prices rice growing will prove
profitable in the Northern States. If
tried it should be either on some lakes
or ponds on the borders of which rice
formerly grew, or the upland rice should
be sown, which may be cultivated and
harvested the same as other grain.

What wide world is there made for passion

Looking across the nights and the days,
Where our two souls together shall wing it

Yes, dear love- let us sing Of tomorrow,
Each one fuller Of loveliness.
Days without measure Of tears or sorrow,
Only the sweeter as life grows less.

This mineral has long been used in the
arts as preferable substitute for emery.
Its scarcity, and the expense of mining,
has prevented its extensive use for the
ordinary purposes to which emery is
adapted by reason of its abundance.
Corundum is crude sapphire, and in
hardness ranks highest of all minerals,
excepting the diamond. It's use for
grinding wheels is in great demand. the
superior quality of these over emery
wheels having been demonstrated for
nearly every purpose. II requires an
extreme degree of heat to fuse the min
eral, and grinding wheels made of il arc
said to be subjected to fully 5000 de
grecs, in the process of qualification.
This imparts capacity Of resistance to
centrifugal force not attained in any
process of making up emery wheels, be
